The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Adam Morgan ｜ 1⧸18⧸24

00:00:00.000 There's a lot of stuff going on. We talked about a new secret court that was brought together under executive order by Joe Biden.

00:00:09.760 We don't know anything really about it. We read the most cryptic story from Politico on today's podcast.

00:00:17.680 I don't think I know any more than I did after reading the headline.

00:00:24.860 There's a secret court. It's doing something. It's involved with intelligence gathering on Europeans and Americans.

00:00:33.620 That's really all we know. And they are keeping it that way.

00:00:39.000 The Justice Department won't even tell us if the court is operating.

00:00:44.740 We're not allowed to know where the court is.

00:00:47.540 But the good news is the I think it's five justices that they're all have, you know, former intelligence backgrounds.

00:00:58.720 So that's really, really super great.

00:01:01.480 Except for Eric Holder. And he's the guy who's the head judge on this.

00:01:06.520 So this is all going to work out really great.

00:01:08.900 When are we going to take our country back?

00:01:10.980 Well, election. But there's some poll numbers out that show Trump is growing stronger and stronger.

00:01:18.120 There is another poll that came out today that shows with one caveat.

00:01:22.960 Find out about it in today's podcast.

00:01:25.700 Brought to you by Preborn.

00:01:28.140 One of these days, maybe in our lifetimes, it's possible we'll see the abolition of abortion.

00:01:32.880 And everyone will know that abortion is a horror show. 0.99

00:01:38.300 That it is the actual murder of children.

00:01:41.340 History books of our future will write about the generational trauma, the breakdown of families,

00:01:46.560 the destruction of basic morality, and how one day it came to the end.

00:01:51.320 But for now, we're still in that historical era.

00:01:54.340 We're still now the ones fighting it.

00:01:56.780 We can't just sit back and hope.

00:01:59.400 We have to do something.

00:02:00.360 The Ministry of Preborn stands every day for the helpless among us.

00:02:04.800 And they don't attack people.

00:02:08.080 They don't call them names.

00:02:10.000 They actually help women who are pregnant or thinking about an abortion.

00:02:15.300 They get them an ultrasound free.

00:02:17.700 That's a $28 expense for the Ministry of Preborn.

00:02:21.820 People are taking care of that.

00:02:23.620 So they get this free ultrasound.

00:02:25.360 They see and hear the baby.

00:02:26.640 And then they say, I'm so alone, though.

00:02:28.440 I don't have the resources.

00:02:29.980 And they say, we're here for you for the next two years with baby clothes and food and whatever you need.

00:02:36.840 This is amazing what they're doing.

00:02:40.200 Saving lives every day.

00:02:42.200 One ultrasound at a time.

00:02:44.320 $28 to save a life.

00:02:46.520 Just dial pound 250.

00:02:47.820 Say the keyword baby.

00:02:49.160 Pound 250.

00:02:49.980 Keyword baby.

00:02:50.660 Or go to preborn.com slash Glenn.

00:02:52.880 That's preborn.com slash Glenn.

00:02:55.060 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:03:12.200 Oh, where do we start?

00:03:13.320 Let me start with some good news.

00:03:14.740 May I?

00:03:15.060 Uh, the New York Stock Exchange has withdrawn a rule that some have said would have illegally implemented a radical environmentalist agenda and harmed national security.

00:03:30.920 Yesterday, the New York Stock Exchange announced that it would be withdrawing a proposed rule to the Security and Exchange Commission that would have created a listing entity called Natural Asset Company.

00:03:44.780 A natural asset company would be empowered to control private and public lands by capturing the intrinsic and productive value of nature.

00:03:56.180 And they'd be able to block things like logging, herding, having cattle, growing things, having people on the land, and, of course, drilling.

00:04:06.920 The proposed rule was opposed by a coalition of over 2,000, or, sorry, 2 dozen Republican attorneys general and state financial officers who warned that the rule would be used to push liberal political agendas.

00:04:21.580 Republicans also said that so foreign entities would be able to purchase and control what happens on public lands and private lands by designating it an NAC.

00:04:30.980 It's Marlowe Oaks and this audience that I believe get the credit.

00:04:35.420 Marlowe Oaks brought this, he's the Utah Republican treasurer, he brought this to my attention, what, right before Christmas?

00:04:43.880 And they were supposed to decide on January 2nd, you mobilized, you called your senators and your, you know, your state officials and government officials in Washington, and they acted.

00:04:57.440 Again, another huge, huge, huge win caused by you.

00:05:06.060 So thank you for everything that you have done.

00:05:09.080 Now, let's keep our eye on them because the New York Stock Exchange withdrew the rule.

00:05:14.840 They didn't want to get ruled against, so they withdrew their application.

00:05:18.680 And let's see if they repackage it in any way.

00:05:22.880 Keep your eye on this.

00:05:24.840 Now, there's a couple of stories here that I find puzzling and interesting.

00:05:29.640 Two Navy SEALs were lost at sea.

00:05:33.400 You don't hear that very often, but it happens.

00:05:37.000 Two U.S. Navy SEALs were lost at sea on a mission targeting Iranian weapons and the deliveries to the Houthis in Yemen.

00:05:45.920 The nighttime mission ended with a seizure of a small sailing boat that was transporting advanced lethal aid to the Yemeni rebel groups as part of its campaign of attacks against international merchant shipping.

00:06:01.560 The SEALs had been reported missing in the days following the mission.

00:06:05.760 The SEALs had been reported missing in the days following the mission, which took place on the 11th of January off the coast of Somalia.

00:06:14.740 Its purpose had not been revealed when it was announced.

00:06:19.720 The two SEALs are still lost at sea.

00:06:23.520 Now, let me ask you something.

00:06:28.780 They're continuing an exhaustive search for our missing teammates.

00:06:32.880 They were on this interdiction mission.

00:06:38.360 They were climbing onto this sailboat when, according to the Pentagon, one was knocked off by the high waves.

00:06:48.360 The second SEAL then jumped in after the first following protocol.

00:06:53.620 And they're both missing, presumed dead.

00:07:01.940 Now, let me just point out a couple of things that even I know about Navy SEALs.

00:07:08.880 First of all, they're pretty good swimmers.

00:07:11.940 They, as part of their training, have to tread water for, like, two hours.

00:07:20.260 It's some crazy amount of time that they're just dumped out into the ocean.

00:07:25.640 They, you know, they're thrown out of an airplane, and then they're dumped out in the ocean, and they have to tread water.

00:07:32.360 So, they're good at treading water.

00:07:36.900 But here's the craziest thing.

00:07:39.680 They also have little beacons on their suits.

00:07:43.760 So, if they're lost at sea, we can find them because they have a little tracking beacon on their suit.

00:07:55.480 Now, maybe they weren't wearing that tracking beacon.

00:07:59.800 Maybe these were the two Navy SEALs that can't tread water.

00:08:06.520 But I'd like more information.

00:08:09.460 And I'd also like our president to even acknowledge that we lost two Navy SEALs.

00:08:15.560 It'd be nice.

00:08:16.980 Could we?

00:08:17.780 Could we acknowledge that if they were lost on a mission?

00:08:22.060 I have no idea what happened.

00:08:26.100 And it could be exactly the way the government is reported.

00:08:31.020 But I'm sorry.

00:08:33.120 The purveyor of mis- and disinformation, the largest global purveyor of fake information, is the United States government at this point.

00:08:45.240 I don't trust a damn thing they say.

00:08:47.640 And you shouldn't.

00:08:48.880 Let me give you this story.

00:08:49.800 This broke yesterday from the Blaze.

00:08:52.760 Blaze Media can now reveal that the person who discovered the pipe bomb at the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington, D.C.

00:09:02.760 on January 6th was a United States Capitol Police plainclothes officer.

00:09:09.100 Now, let me refresh you on this.

00:09:14.220 There were two pipe bombs that were found on January 6th.

00:09:19.920 The FBI, with all of their resources, all of the surveillance video, cannot find who.

00:09:29.940 Who planted those bombs?

00:09:32.160 Luckily, one was found by a passerby, the first one, at the RNC headquarters.

00:09:39.940 Some woman apparently ran in and said, 1.00

00:09:42.660 I think there might be a pipe bomb in the alley.

00:09:45.680 And they were like, oh, we've got to call the police.

00:09:48.760 The police came and said, yes, it's a pipe bomb.

00:09:52.580 But it didn't go off.

00:09:54.340 In fact, the details that we have show that it probably wasn't really designed to go off.

00:10:01.380 But it had like that kitchen timer.

00:10:04.540 Then, just a few minutes later, another passerby was walking by a park bench right in front of the DNC headquarters.

00:10:14.980 And they spotted what they thought was a pipe bomb.

00:10:18.700 And so, they immediately ran in and said, hey, I think I found a pipe bomb.

00:10:25.240 And the Secret Service freaked out.

00:10:27.440 They went out.

00:10:28.260 And then, they started, they gathered that pipe bomb.

00:10:31.400 They're like, look, John, it is a pipe bomb.

00:10:35.440 And the other guy was like, Tom, that's crazy.

00:10:38.440 I wonder who put that there.

00:10:40.240 Should we get the vice president out?

00:10:43.120 No, let's leave her inside. 1.00

00:10:45.460 Okay, so, so far, I've got quite a tail, I'm telling you.

00:10:51.660 Now, let me add something else.

00:10:55.340 All of the text traffic and all of the diary, if you will, that the Secret Service keeps,

00:11:05.640 on January 6th, it was all accidentally deleted.

00:11:10.820 Damn it.

00:11:12.460 Did I push delete?

00:11:13.720 I didn't mean to do that.

00:11:15.460 I deleted all of it?

00:11:17.000 Oh, crap.

00:11:18.220 So, they can't tell us exactly what happened.

00:11:21.200 They can't tell us exactly why Kamala Harris left.

00:11:27.840 She was at the Capitol waiting for the, you know, waiting for the, you know, the vote on the presidency to finalize that.

00:11:38.100 She was supposed to be there.

00:11:40.120 Remember, she's a member of the Senate, too. 0.71

00:11:42.960 She's the tiebreaker. 1.00

00:11:44.100 But she was suddenly called away, and nobody can recall why.

00:11:48.540 And she had to go to the DNC headquarters.

00:11:51.660 Why?

00:11:52.140 We don't know.

00:11:53.180 Probably something very important, though.

00:11:55.460 And so, the Secret Service rushed her in, got her in.

00:11:59.740 They did a check of the whole area.

00:12:02.020 They didn't find a pipe bomb.

00:12:03.980 But this passerby, who, just as a passerby, he found a pipe bomb.

00:12:12.260 Secret Service couldn't.

00:12:13.980 But the passerby found it because it was sitting right there in a way that it looked like it was meant to be discovered.

00:12:20.480 Well, we've tried to find out who this guy is, this passerby, this innocent guy who had a sharp eagle eye, and found that sitting on the sidewalk right in front of the park bench, all by himself.

00:12:33.200 Found out who he was.

00:12:34.540 He was a D.C. metro police officer.

00:12:39.340 Now, why wouldn't the D.C. or Capitol police officer, why wouldn't everyone want you to know that it was a police officer that found that instead of just a passerby?

00:12:53.420 It would lend more credibility, wouldn't it, Stu?

00:12:56.520 It wasn't just some old lady that's like, I think that's a pipe bomb. 1.00

00:13:00.440 It's got a timer on it.

00:13:02.220 No, no, no.

00:13:02.780 This is a credible, this is a D.C. cop.

00:13:05.700 Right.

00:13:05.900 You can see a couple of officers sitting there.

00:13:08.780 Some random person comes up, maybe not appearing credible.

00:13:13.300 Oh, there's a bomb over there.

00:13:14.460 Oh, okay.

00:13:15.120 All right.

00:13:15.460 Thanks, sir.

00:13:16.000 Appreciate that.

00:13:16.900 But if it's a D.C., it was Capitol police officer, right?

00:13:19.900 Capitol police officer, plain clothes.

00:13:21.740 Yep.

00:13:21.900 You'd think, okay, well, this person's very credible.

00:13:24.140 We'd better get the vice president out of here immediately.

00:13:26.980 Right.

00:13:28.060 Now, here's what happened.

00:13:30.480 We now know that the United States Capitol Police plain clothes officer walked by, just happened to look down there on the sidewalk, and there was the pipe bomb.

00:13:41.980 So he walked a full 20 feet to the SUV of the Secret Service.

00:13:49.740 And he knocked on the passenger window, and then talked to him for a while, and then casually walked around to the driver's side, and they rolled it down, and they talked some more.

00:14:03.200 And what he said was, hey, right over there, about 20 feet from where we're sitting, I found a pipe bomb.

00:14:14.900 Now, Secret Service, what do they do?

00:14:18.040 Of course, they jump out, they call the bomb squad, they get one of those little robot things to pick it up so it doesn't go off and kill somebody, and they get the first thing they do is they get Kamala Harris away from the area.

00:14:31.740 It's 20 feet away from her motorcade.

00:14:34.660 And, oh, what a close call that was.

00:14:38.220 Except that's not what they did.

00:14:40.300 They left Kamala Harris in the building, and, you know, before they took a look at that pipe bomb, they finished their lunch in the car.

00:14:52.060 I mean, do we know where the lunch came from?

00:14:55.860 No, I might have.

00:14:57.140 Look, dude, it's hot.

00:14:58.480 I mean, I've had cold lunches all week.

00:15:00.520 This is the only time we've had to eat our lunch while it's still hot.

00:15:03.600 And it could be something like off the Taco Bell craveable menu.

00:15:07.120 Could be.

00:15:07.840 It just could be something so delicious they were like, eh.

00:15:10.840 But there it was, 15 to 20 feet away from the bomb, and they fed their face first.

00:15:19.340 It's weird.

00:15:20.160 It is weird.

00:15:21.240 It's a weird decision.

00:15:22.340 Yeah, and it's weird that the Capitol Police and the congressional hearings didn't include the fact that that was a police officer.

00:15:35.680 They just said it was a passerby.

00:15:37.340 They could never get the name, never get the name, never get the name.

00:15:39.840 Well, Blaze got the name, finally.

00:15:42.180 We got the name.

00:15:42.980 Haven't released the name yet.

00:15:44.360 Oh, but it's coming.

00:15:47.720 Hmm.

00:15:48.000 Interesting.

00:15:50.120 So, another weird kind of thing that hasn't happened in my lifetime has happened again.

00:15:57.680 Wow, we've fallen into a wormhole.

00:16:02.980 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:16:07.580 Boy, are the intelligence agencies freaking out about Donald Trump.

00:16:12.280 I heard an interview with somebody from the intelligence agencies over in England, and they said Donald Trump being elected is a national security threat to England.

00:16:24.080 And we needed to ponder that and realize what's at stake here.

00:16:28.820 Excuse me?

00:16:29.780 If all of the intelligence agencies, and everybody is saying that this man is a threat to their countries, does anybody think that they're going to allow him?

00:16:43.140 This is so dangerous.

00:16:45.660 Who are these people to make these decisions instead of us?

00:16:51.880 It's absolutely insane.

00:16:54.620 Now, Donald Trump has a way to go, but he's 16 points ahead of Nikki Haley in New Hampshire.

00:17:05.200 Don't know what's happening in South Carolina yet, but we happen to have somebody from South Carolina, South Carolina state representative, Adam Morgan.

00:17:14.600 He is with the Freedom Caucus there.

00:17:18.340 He's actually the chairman.

00:17:20.780 And we appreciate you coming on.

00:17:23.860 I wanted to get you on for a couple of reasons.

00:17:27.540 One, do you have any idea what's going to happen with the vote between Nikki Haley and President Trump?

00:17:35.820 I would predict a very similar outcome to Iowa.

00:17:38.940 Okay.

00:17:39.620 And I don't know that there's too much difference with our values.

00:17:43.140 I think people here are very pro-Trump.

00:17:47.600 In my area, there's a lot of people that like DeSantis, too.

00:17:50.920 I'm not seeing much action or movement for Nikki at all.

00:17:56.600 Okay.

00:17:57.340 So, Adam, you are part of the Freedom Caucus, and I understand that the rhinos there are trying to thwart anything that you guys are trying to do. 0.91

00:18:10.540 They're muzzling you guys. 0.98

00:18:12.640 How?

00:18:12.960 Well, you know, you actually had me on the program several months ago when they kicked us out of Republican Caucus over that loyalty pledge.

00:18:21.500 They said we couldn't share pictures of the public voting board with constituents because it made other Republicans look bad.

00:18:27.700 They said we couldn't endorse or campaign against other members, even if they did something illegal or immoral.

00:18:33.400 Now, here we are months later, and one of the chairmen, a Republican, gets busted for telling lobbyists, give me campaign cash, and I will move your bills out of committee.

00:18:43.240 And he's currently being investigated and has been referred to – oh, yeah, referred to a prosecutor.

00:18:47.540 He is still in House leadership.

00:18:48.940 And no one that signed that pledge can call him out because they signed a crony, unprecedented pledge, but they kicked us out for not signing it.

00:18:57.820 Well, then, just last week, they decided that since they can't silence us by kicking us out of their caucus, you know, their closed-door caucus meetings,

00:19:05.340 they are going to change House rules to make it so that we can't offer amendments on the floor. 0.84

00:19:11.480 Now, yesterday, we took up the Help Not Harm bill, which is a bill that prohibits transgender surgeries on minors.

00:19:18.880 And during that debate, they didn't have criminal penalties for physicians that do this.

00:19:24.380 They didn't have reporting requirements for parents, for kids at school when they're transitioning and the parents aren't aware.

00:19:29.780 All of our Freedom Caucus members, we offered a bunch of those amendments up and made them take hard votes.

00:19:34.600 They actually voted down criminal penalties, and then Riley Gaines jumps in on Twitter and blasts them all and says they all need to be primaried.

00:19:42.900 Well, they do a 180.

00:19:44.460 They pull an amendment, and it passes strong, makes it a felony, all because of the Freedom Caucus amendments and because of the information to the public.

00:19:54.300 Well, they want to change House rules now that we can't offer amendments.

00:19:58.020 Literally, a playbook, like straight out of the Nancy Pelosi playbook.

00:20:01.040 They're going to remove the ability to make motions on the floor, and they're going to make it so that the majority leader and minority leader get to handpick which amendments get heard on bills like Help Not Harm, Save Women's Sports, Constitutional Carry, whatever it is.

00:20:14.860 I mean, so it is literally a full-court press to silence and marginalize conservative members who will not go along to get along, won't sign their pledges, won't fall in line and accept weak, watered-down token bills.

00:20:28.860 You know, we're just done with that.

00:20:30.580 There's so many, I believe, so many conservatives across the country who are recently elected who are just, we're sick of the same old, same old.

00:20:39.440 Like, we're going to fight.

00:20:40.560 We're going to stand up.

00:20:41.480 We're going to make them take hard votes. 0.99

00:20:43.380 And when we do, we win.

00:20:46.920 So what is, wow, I mean, you guys have a constitution, don't you?

00:20:52.240 I mean.

00:20:53.180 Yeah, right.

00:20:53.640 Yeah, we do.

00:20:54.880 So the thing is, they can set House rules. 0.74

00:20:58.320 So thankfully, we actually got it beat last week.

00:21:01.920 A lot of grassroots got focused on this.

00:21:04.420 They heard about these rules and started calling their legislators, which I once again will urge anyone listening, if you're in the state of South Carolina, right now, go to South Carolina House Representatives, find your legislator, and email them or call them and tell them,

00:21:18.580 do not pass Nancy Pelosi rules that restrict the conservatives' ability to legislate.

00:21:24.300 Like, I mean, you've got to do it.

00:21:25.580 Because really, what I've learned in my time in office, the only way we really win is if the people are behind us.

00:21:32.820 But you have to have, you know, you have to have legislators who are willing to stand and make the fight and inform the public.

00:21:38.300 And then you've got to have the public actually pressuring the rest of the body to do what's right.

00:21:44.440 And so that's what we're doing.

00:21:46.120 We're focused on that.

00:21:47.080 We amend legislation at every turn.

00:21:50.360 And we've been so effective.

00:21:52.600 The assistant majority leader, a Republican, just this week, went to a lobbyist special interest group on stage and urged them.

00:22:02.140 They said, you've got to donate and recruit candidates against Freedom Caucus Republicans and get them out.

00:22:09.420 They're crazy.

00:22:10.380 They're too conservative.

00:22:11.600 You need to help us get rid of these people.

00:22:13.460 This is a Republican leader.

00:22:15.000 And they spent $700,000 in attack ads in less than a year on my 17 members.

00:22:22.840 So, I mean, they're doing everything they can to stamp out the conservative movement in South Carolina.

00:22:29.200 And yet we keep winning.

00:22:31.420 And like I said, the way we're doing it is because of the people.

00:22:34.160 And so we've got to get this information out there.

00:22:36.740 That's why I'm so grateful for you and people like you who have these platforms that can help inform people and let them know about what's going on.

00:22:43.720 I find this absolutely despicable, remarkable in some aspects, but absolutely predictable with what the GOP now represents.

00:22:56.280 The GOP.

00:22:57.060 I'm so sick and tired of hearing how we're radical when all we want is constitutional rule.

00:23:06.560 That's all we want.

00:23:07.880 We'll live with the vote of the people as long as it's fair.

00:23:11.420 We'll live with the vote of the people.

00:23:13.020 We'll live with the process.

00:23:15.100 You know, take a vote.

00:23:16.660 You disagree.

00:23:17.140 But I am so sick and tired of being labeled a radical when all I want is a group of people to execute their oath of office and protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and to actually represent the people.

00:23:37.580 These people, I'm telling you, both parties are so damn corrupt.

00:23:41.980 They get their...

00:23:42.700 It's a uniparty.

00:23:43.160 Yes, it is.

00:23:43.980 It's an absolute uniparty.

00:23:45.400 Absolutely.

00:23:45.580 You know, at that same event I was talking about, the assistant majority leader says we need to raise money against these crazies.

00:23:50.960 He's immediately echoed and followed by the minority leader of the Senate, a Democrat, who said, I couldn't agree more.

00:23:56.600 You know, we got to get rid of these nudges.

00:23:58.320 I mean, so you have literally Republican and Democrats agreeing we've got to get rid of the people who have passed Save Women's Sports, who have passed Constitutional Carry, who have, you know, we were the ones that did all the election integrity, the prohibition on vaccine mandates.

00:24:11.680 Every one of those bills came from Freedom Caucus members.

00:24:14.460 That's who they think is crazy.

00:24:17.240 You almost can't make it up.

00:24:18.720 But the people, everyone knows that this is going on.

00:24:21.160 The question is, what's the remedy?

00:24:22.800 The remedy is we've got to have good, strong, principled, courageous people to run for office.

00:24:28.840 And if you're listening right now and you live in the state of South Carolina, you need to consider running for office this cycle.

00:24:36.540 You have overwhelming majority of members in the legislature who do not represent your values.

00:24:41.560 They don't want to vote on the record.

00:24:42.900 They don't want to change or fix things or do any work.

00:24:45.920 And we've got to have a better quality of candidate.

00:24:49.340 It's one of the reasons I'm running for Congress.

00:24:51.240 I think the same thing is needed there.

00:24:53.520 We need conservatives to run at all levels, the county, the state, the federal, people who will go in and not just be all talk, not just, you know, smile and say, oh, yeah, I'm a Republican.

00:25:04.880 And they actually say, you know what, I know what my principles and values are.

00:25:09.540 I know what my constituents want.

00:25:11.000 I'm going to use the office that I have to implement my worldview, the principles I hold dear, the constitutional principles that I know are rooted in truth.

00:25:20.640 And I'm going to implement them in the world around me and defend what I hold dear.

00:25:24.260 And we've done that.

00:25:25.220 We've shut down a pediatric transgender clinic here in South Carolina. 0.90

00:25:28.220 We sued school districts that were blatantly teaching CRT when no one would do anything about it.

00:25:33.440 My caucus sued, and we won both cases, and it's out of the schools.

00:25:37.500 I mean, we win when you fight.

00:25:40.360 But you have to have people who are willing to have the backbone and fight.

00:25:44.740 And you need the people behind you.

00:25:47.420 This is our constitutional duty.

00:25:51.160 This is what we are supposed to do as people.

00:25:54.260 I know people say, I'm tired of calling them all the time.

00:25:56.660 But that's how we got into this situation.

00:25:59.320 We didn't pay attention.

00:26:00.740 We didn't call.

00:26:01.560 We weren't involved.

00:26:02.660 And they knew that.

00:26:04.840 And so this whole thing went corrupt.

00:26:07.880 Our constitutional duty is to be informed and to make your voice heard.

00:26:15.340 So if you're in South Carolina, I want you to call your legislator and say, do not pass the Nancy Pelosi House Rules Bill. 0.86

00:26:25.920 It's an abomination.

00:26:27.800 When you are silencing representatives of people and you're not allowing them to say, I'd like to suggest an amendment to this.

00:26:39.440 I'd like to change this a little bit and suggest that.

00:26:42.020 When you can't even allow them to speak, you know, you know, you're on the losing side.

00:26:50.360 Only the losing side does that.

00:26:53.760 You're neutering the institution.

00:26:55.960 Yes.

00:26:56.200 I mean, you're literally silencing people who represent 700,000 South Carolinians.

00:27:03.760 Amazing.

00:27:04.420 Thank you so much.

00:27:05.580 I appreciate it.

00:27:07.060 Thanks for everything you guys do.

00:27:08.460 Thanks so much.

00:27:08.700 Anything that we can ever do for you guys in the Freedom Caucus, and I mean this countrywide, you just let me know.

00:27:15.940 Thanks, Adam.

00:27:16.520 That's Adam Morgan.

00:27:17.820 He is South Carolina State Representative and the Freedom Caucus Chairperson.

00:27:24.340 Nothing surprises me anymore.

00:27:26.820 Nothing.

00:27:27.640 Nothing surprises me.

00:27:29.020 You know, I was just looking up as we were doing this interview, I was looking up at one of the television screens from one of the, you know, networks, and they had the gang of four up, the people that are making all the decisions, and you have Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell.

00:27:47.440 Then you have Hakeem Jeffries and Mike Johnson.

00:27:53.620 Tell me, maybe Mike, the jury is still out on a little bit.

00:27:59.020 I don't know.

00:28:00.560 But the other three, what is the difference between them?

00:28:06.440 Really, what is the difference between them?

00:28:08.800 And they're the ones that are deciding what bills come up, if you can offer an amendment or not.

00:28:16.700 That's not constitutional rule.

00:28:20.120 There's no debate.

00:28:21.420 When is the last time you heard people on the floor actually debate stuff?

00:28:26.900 When?

00:28:30.920 When was the last time you heard them go to the floor and say, hey, should we go to war or not?

00:28:37.120 Your voice isn't being represented.

00:28:39.100 And you know this because your representative, most likely, like all of my representatives, say the same thing.

00:28:48.040 Why am I even here?

00:28:49.880 I don't have a voice.

00:28:51.900 We're not voting on things.

00:28:53.700 We're just, they shove a bill in our face, and we've got two hours to go over it, which is impossible, and you vote for it.

00:29:00.440 And if you don't, then you're going to be punished by the party.

00:29:04.220 That is Soviet Union stuff.

00:29:07.780 I urge you.

00:29:09.020 He's exactly right.

00:29:10.080 If you think at all right now when I say this that you should run for office and you have a feeling in the pit of your stomach like, oh, crap, then run for office.

00:29:23.720 Run for office.

00:29:25.160 Know the Constitution inside and out and run for office.

00:29:30.080 It's the only way this thing is going to be taken back.

00:29:34.320 All right, I want to go through some of the audio of what happened yesterday.

00:29:53.520 Well, first of all, let me just set this up.

00:29:55.620 Here's John Kerry's daughter speaking on a panel at the World Economic Forum's Davos Summit.

00:30:02.940 But his daughter, which it's like Judge Judy, what does she think about things?

00:30:09.620 Here she is trying to paint a picture of the climate crisis.

00:30:16.000 Listen to her.

00:30:17.400 I cannot think of a topic more urgent, actually, than the intersection of climate change and health.

00:30:21.540 And I apologize that my back is to some folks.

00:30:25.240 The climate crisis is a health crisis fundamentally.

00:30:28.300 And that actually means it is a crisis, therefore, also of our stability, our security, our economic growth, and our fundamental future as a globe.

00:30:36.660 When we think about it, health is fundamental to everything that we are trying to do.

00:30:40.720 A country like Zambia is now shutting down its schools because of a cholera outbreak that is from increased rainfall.

00:30:48.260 In malaria is spreading in areas where it's been eradicated or removed in many of these countries.

00:30:53.500 We are losing progress against our sustainable development goals.

00:30:57.660 We have put billions of dollars towards those goals, and we're truly losing progress.

00:31:02.620 We're now about to see the statistics of the deaths that we're seeing by 2050 is more than double what the statistics used to be.

00:31:08.820 This is not a future problem, though.

00:31:10.720 We always talk in future numbers.

00:31:12.520 This is a problem happening here and now today.

00:31:15.400 2023 was an apocalyptic year in terms of extreme weather events and what we've seen happen.

00:31:21.120 That is about to get worse.

00:31:22.440 It's always going to get worse.

00:31:24.620 It's always here.

00:31:25.600 You know, it's so weird how often they have to convince people a global catastrophe is here.

00:31:30.940 Do you remember when they were like, you know, when Rudy Giuliani came out and said,

00:31:34.380 No, guys, this is really bad.

00:31:35.940 These buildings falling down is bad.

00:31:37.880 You have to understand.

00:31:39.260 Why won't you pay attention to it?

00:31:41.180 Remember when that happened?

00:31:42.360 No, it didn't happen that way.

00:31:43.480 I don't recall that.

00:31:45.520 So they're all freaking out.

00:31:47.000 At the meantime, somebody's trying to bring some peace to the World Economic Forum yesterday.

00:31:51.380 Cut to, please.

00:31:52.880 This is...

00:31:54.080 I'm not sure.

00:32:01.500 I'm not sure.

00:32:03.320 Elon Musk identified this person as Elizabeth Warren.

00:32:07.080 I'm not sure if that's right.

00:32:08.580 She's wearing a mask.

00:32:09.780 But she's praying and then she's blowing and spitting into her hands and rubbing them back

00:32:17.460 and forth.

00:32:18.200 And then she goes and she puts her hands on the heads of each of them and then coughs on 0.99

00:32:24.920 them, which I kind of enjoyed myself, that a group of people that were so freaked out

00:32:32.440 by anybody coughing anywhere near them are now having some sort of a prayer ritual where

00:32:40.560 you get coughed upon, which I think is very, very, very nice.

00:32:44.240 So that's the kind of stuff they were engaging in yesterday, all normal stuff.

00:32:50.100 And then this crazy man comes up who's a radical, dangerous guy.

00:32:56.160 And his name is Malay.

00:33:00.160 And he had something to say.

00:33:03.900 He was just elected in Argentina and he had some warnings for the World Economic Forum.

00:33:10.980 Here we go.

00:33:11.440 Cut three.

00:33:11.960 The main leaders of the Western world have abandoned the model of freedom for different

00:33:17.540 versions of what we call collectivism.

00:33:20.020 We're here to tell you that collectivist experiments are never the solution to the problems that

00:33:28.040 afflict the citizens of the world.

00:33:29.780 Rather, they are the root cause.

00:33:34.240 At one point, I counted six people applauding.

00:33:39.900 Yeah.

00:33:40.360 Wow.

00:33:40.640 As many as six.

00:33:42.280 Is it the same person six times?

00:33:44.660 Well, I'll leave that.

00:33:46.540 I'm just going to leave that murky.

00:33:48.040 OK.

00:33:49.100 Now, here he is giving an update to the definition of socialism.

00:33:56.000 The West has unfortunately already started to go along this path.

00:33:58.900 I know to many, it may sound ridiculous to suggest that the West has turned to socialism.

00:34:04.300 But it's only ridiculous if you only limit yourself to the traditional economic

00:34:10.500 definition of socialism, which says that it's an economic system where the state owns the

00:34:15.740 means of production.

00:34:16.340 This definition, in my view, should be updated in the light of current circumstances.

00:34:24.900 Today, states don't need to directly control the means of production to control every aspect of the lives of individuals.

00:34:32.060 With tools such as printing money, debt, subsidies, controlling the interest rate, price controls, and regulations to correct the so-called market failures,

00:34:45.240 they can control the lives and fates of millions of individuals.

00:34:50.480 This is how we come to the point where, by using different names or guises, a good deal of the generally accepted political offers

00:34:59.740 in most Western countries are collectivist variants, whether they proclaim to be openly communists, fascists,

00:35:06.720 Nazis, socialists, social democrats, national socialists, democrat Christians, Christian democrats, neo-Keynesians, progressive, populist nationalists,

00:35:18.720 or globalists.

00:35:19.720 At bottom, there are no major differences.

00:35:23.520 They all say that the state should steer all aspects of the lives of individuals.

00:35:30.000 They all defend a model contrary to that one which led humanity to the most spectacular progress in its history.

00:35:38.380 You know, we have said for a long time on this program, I've said for maybe 15 years,

00:35:42.880 where is the next Lincoln, where is the next Churchill, where is the next even Kennedy, where are they?

00:35:52.280 We've been adrift with no leadership.

00:35:55.880 There are leaders popping up now.

00:35:58.840 You know, Donald Trump, they hate him for a reason.

00:36:02.420 He was a big topic this week.

00:36:05.420 He's a danger to the World Economic Forum and all of their plans.

00:36:10.080 Well, wow, sign me up to vote for him right away.

00:36:14.780 Can I vote twice?

00:36:15.800 If I die, make sure I vote for Donald Trump twice.

00:36:19.940 Okay, please, if I die, do not let me die voting Democrat.

00:36:26.980 This guy, coming from Argentina, speaking this truth, is remarkable.

00:36:34.580 Remarkable.

00:36:35.100 Who would have expected it from Argentina?

00:36:39.380 Here he is on his warning.

00:36:42.880 We are here to warn you about what can happen if the countries in the Western world that became rich

00:36:50.340 through the model of freedom stay on this path of servitude.

00:36:54.780 The case of Argentina is an empirical demonstration that no matter how rich you may be or how much you may have

00:37:00.900 in terms of natural resources or how skilled your population may be or educated

00:37:06.580 or how many bars of gold you may have in the central bank,

00:37:11.140 if measures are adopted that hinder the free function of markets, free competition, free price systems,

00:37:17.560 if you hinder trade, if you attack private property, the only possible fate is poverty.

00:37:24.100 Cut seven, please.

00:37:28.380 The market is a mechanism for social cooperation where you voluntarily exchange ownership rights.

00:37:34.780 Therefore, based on this definition, talking about a market failure is an oxymoron.

00:37:40.340 There are no market failures.

00:37:45.020 If transactions are voluntary, the only context in which there can be a market failure is if there is coercion.

00:37:53.660 And the only one that is able to coerce generally is the state, which holds a monopoly on violence.

00:38:00.040 Consequently, if someone considers that there is a market failure, I would suggest that they check to see if the state intervention involved.

00:38:09.520 Jeez, he's clear.

00:38:12.160 It's interesting, you know, because that is that's someone who really knows put a lot of thought into

00:38:17.820 not even conservative, let's look, libertarian economic theory, someone who really cares about it.

00:38:24.360 And he talks a good game.

00:38:26.520 I hope this works.

00:38:27.840 I had that as I was watching this speech, I had this this layer of fear fall over me that if this doesn't work,

00:38:38.740 what's going to get blamed?

00:38:40.760 Oh, yeah.

00:38:41.840 The people and freedom.

00:38:43.340 He's so clear and so real and really believes this stuff, it seems.

00:38:48.080 And that if this goes awry, if some of these reforms don't work or they are blamed,

00:38:56.400 this is what happened after the fall of the Soviet Union.

00:38:59.480 You know, we had a real opportunity for capitalism to really just get rid of this stuff forever.

00:39:03.880 And a lot of people went in there to ensure that capitalist transition did not work the way it was supposed to.

00:39:10.140 Well, you've got every you these people are the enemy of all of the globalists,

00:39:16.140 the people who are saying, put your belief in the things that we know have worked time and time again

00:39:22.920 and put your belief in your trust in the people, not these bloated institutions.

00:39:28.880 They're the ones who screw things up.

00:39:31.960 That that does work.

00:39:34.080 It does work.

00:39:34.900 We know it time and time again.

00:39:36.440 It has worked all over the world.

00:39:37.900 Well, yeah, the problem is, is if the bad guys, the guys who don't want you to be free,

00:39:44.000 the people that believe that they have to control everything, if if they are entrenched, like in our system,

00:39:51.920 they are deep, deeply entrenched in this system.

00:39:57.020 The deep state, if they can get their hooks in you, get their hooks in the system, they can make sure that it doesn't succeed.

00:40:07.120 But I will tell you.

00:40:08.640 As much as you think the deep state could do that, if they could, they wouldn't be so worried about Donald Trump because they'd know we just thwart him.

00:40:22.580 Nobody will ever know they they have to.

00:40:25.420 Because I'm telling you, I worry about assassination.

00:40:29.320 I really worry about assassination.

00:40:31.620 They have they have said in advance everything that they were going to do.

00:40:38.340 They just said this is what the Republicans are going to do.

00:40:41.180 And then they did it.

00:40:42.140 There's been one word missing from their warnings until the last couple of weeks, and that is assassination.

00:40:50.540 You know, there's going to be somebody crazy on the right that I just I hate to say it, but assassination might be in our future.

00:40:57.920 Every time they start talking like this, it's because that's what they're about to do.

00:41:06.680 And I'm I'm I'm just saying that's the pattern.

00:41:10.380 I can't imagine anyone wanting to do that.

00:41:14.560 I hope to God.

00:41:15.940 There are crazy people out there that want to do things.

00:41:19.120 And I pray for our secret service.

00:41:21.640 I don't want any president, no matter how much I like or dislike.

00:41:25.380 And I don't think Americans would be down with that.

00:41:29.920 We don't do that.

00:41:32.840 Of course not.

00:41:33.960 I mean, it's just a such a dark time.

00:41:36.440 And I think there's a lot of people out there just scared of everything.

00:41:39.180 Right.

00:41:39.500 Yeah.

00:41:39.780 And I don't think that the you know.

00:41:45.780 I think this is the really crazy end of the spectrum.

00:41:50.140 This is not, you know, you're Democrats that would plan something.

00:41:53.540 This is the crazy end who who have been convincing themselves that he is Hitler and there is nothing else that can be done.

00:42:04.080 Everything will be destroyed unless he's stopped.

00:42:07.800 If he wins the election.

00:42:11.800 If you actually believe that.

00:42:15.360 And I don't know how many people actually believe that and how many are saying it because they know their world's going to be rocked.

00:42:20.480 They can actually believe it.

00:42:21.900 I think some of them do.

00:42:23.320 I think some.

00:42:24.340 Well, this is the problem.

00:42:25.440 I'm talking about the people in power who say it.

00:42:27.440 I don't think they actually believe he's Hitler.

00:42:29.580 If they did, they would not empower his opponents.

00:42:31.800 Opponents.

00:42:33.100 No.

00:42:33.320 In primaries.

00:42:34.420 No.

00:42:34.620 Right.

00:42:34.800 Like you, you, you would, you, that's the last thing.

00:42:37.920 Excuse me.

00:42:38.420 They would not target.

00:42:40.900 They would, they would instead try to help anyone, anything to beat him.

00:42:45.200 I mean, they, they say this over and over again.

00:42:46.860 These people are Hitler. 0.81

00:42:47.700 And then they're like, well, but we're going to run ads for them in the primary.

00:42:50.940 Yeah.

00:42:51.140 It's like, wait, well, that's not very consistent.

00:42:53.580 So they must not believe it.

00:42:54.860 But you do worry about that sort of rhetoric being put out there for a long period of time

00:42:59.700 over a population.

00:43:01.520 You know, God forbid.

00:43:02.900 Let me play one more clip from Malay.

00:43:06.920 This is how he ended his speech yesterday.

00:43:09.040 And he's speaking directly to you.

00:43:10.960 Listen.

00:43:11.640 Do not be intimidated, intimidated either by the political cast or by parasites who live off the state.

00:43:17.940 Do not surrender to a political class that only wants to stay in power and retain its privileges.

00:43:23.540 You are social benefactors.

00:43:25.900 You're heroes.

00:43:27.060 You're the creators of the most extraordinary period of prosperity we've ever seen.

00:43:33.700 Let no one tell you that your ambition is immoral.

00:43:36.860 If you make money, it's because you offer a better product at a better price, thereby contributing to general well-being.

00:43:44.480 Do not surrender to the advance of the state.

00:43:48.140 The state is not the solution.

00:43:49.400 The state is the problem itself.

00:43:51.280 You are the true protagonists of this story.

00:43:54.760 And rest assured that as from today, Argentina is your staunch, unconditional ally.

00:44:00.660 Thank you very much.

00:44:01.540 And long live freedom.

00:44:02.740 Damn it.

00:44:03.160 Wow.

00:44:05.520 Long live freedom.

00:44:06.640 Damn it.

00:44:07.760 That's amazing.

00:44:09.760 You know, for the first time in listening to him yesterday, for the first time, I kind of felt like people must have felt behind the Iron Curtain when Reagan stepped up.

00:44:20.760 And he said, you, you are the secret.

00:44:26.240 You are the ones that will change the world.

00:44:29.860 This is an evil empire and the wall needs to come down.

00:44:34.280 When he was saying those things and they heard them, they must have had hope.

00:44:38.860 This is going to be over.

00:44:40.840 This is over.

00:44:41.660 Maybe eventually this comes to an end.

00:44:43.220 Right.

00:44:43.840 And while we don't, we're not living in the Soviet Union, we are living in a different country than I've ever lived in.

00:44:49.740 And our rights are going away faster and faster every single day.

00:44:54.900 And when I was listening to him, I was like, wow, maybe, maybe this does come roaring back.

00:45:01.700 Maybe we're at the tip of something unbelievable.

00:45:06.940 Yeah, maybe, maybe.

00:45:08.540 I mean, we've had, look, we've got, there have been periods where freedom has won out for a time and advanced.

00:45:15.460 And we, we saw that and, you know, with Reagan back in that time, of course, saw it many times in our history before that.

00:45:24.360 And maybe we'll, we'll hit that.

00:45:26.100 It's hard, you know, it's, it's, it's always, it's always hard to be optimistic when things look bleak, but this is when the optimism, you know, winds up being right.

00:45:35.240 Like you, you have to hit a bottom to turn it around and maybe that's where we are.

00:45:38.920 And you have to start seeing some leaders.

00:45:40.780 That's been my biggest problem.

00:45:42.840 Where are the global leaders?

00:45:44.240 Where's anybody leading?

00:45:46.280 Well, they're starting to pop up all around the world in unexpected places.

00:45:51.080 And you know that they're, you know that they're right because the global elites are scared crapless.
